Loved these. I have to confess that I only made 10. But I did have the makings for 80 sandwiches,(double the recipe) but our PARTY plans fell threw. Anyway, I cut it down and it worked perfect. I was concerned when I first started to assemble them because I thought they would be dry. But they weren't. I was surprised that the butter mixture and the mustard mixture measurements were spot on. This is what kept the sandwiches from being dry. The only negative I could think of would be the shredded lettuce, it was a bit difficult to keep on top of the biscuit so next time I think I would just us a piece of lettuce. What an outstanding party recipe. This is a keeper. Oh, forgot to say the flavor is wonderful, and I used 1/2 stone ground mustard and 1/2 Dijon mustard. The butter/mustard mixture is what makes the overall flavor of these sandwiches the talk of the PARTY! Thanks for posting. :)

Made these for a "Girl's Night" and even the picky ones kept saying how good these taste. I'm sad that there aren't any leftovers! :) I will definitely make these again. Thanks for another great recipe!

We made these yesterday as a trial run for an upcoming event and WOW! They are great. Followed the recipe exactly and loved it. We also made a roast beef version using the spread from recipe #25238 (Roast Beef Party Sandwiches) and a slice of tomato instead of lettuce. Coming soon a Turkey & Bacon version ? Thanks for the great idea Wildflour!
